SUMMARY
System tray widgets become unresponsive when pasting a screenshot to the desktop

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make a screenshot using Spectacle
2. Paste it to the desktop
3. Try clicking things in the system tray

OBSERVED RESULT
All widgets become unresponsive

EXPECTED RESULT
All widgets should be responsive

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am not a programmer, but this is probably related to inheritance or something since this popup also freezes Dolphin when pasting a screenshot so I guess it does the same to the desktop and all of its children which includes the system tray

Can confirm on 6.1.4.

I think this is because the KIO dialog is set to modal, and as with all modal dialogs the underlying program will not accept input until the dialog is closed. It's just usually shown by dimming the rest of the program, and that doesn't happen here (and likely would look weird).

Moving to frameworks-kio.
